Amy Adams, “The Master” : The redhead wore a lace and tulle nude Marchesa gown to the Golden Globes and seems to favor simple silhouettes with feminine details such like sparkles and fish-tail hems. She is also known to wear Elie Saab and Oscar de la Renta; whatever she wears it will be body hugging with an emphasis on old-school glamour. JOHN SHEARER, JOHN SHEARER/INVISION/AP

Anne Hathaway, “Les Miserables”: The rail thin actress wore a white two-piece Chanel gown to the Golden Globes and a black Giambattista Valli gown (next photo) to the SAG Awards. She is not a risk-taker but nails classic chic gamine like no one else since she cut her hair. She could choose her pal Valentino for the big night. JOHN SHEARER, JOHN SHEARER/INVISION/AP

Helen Hunt, “The Sessions”: Absent from the red carpet for some time, Hunt hasn't exactly brought her A-game; she wore a sleeveless, beaded Dolce & Gabbana (next photo) sheath to the Golden Globes and a platinum strapless Roman Keveza to the SAG Awards, both serviceable but safe. Don't look for any surprises Sunday night. JOHN SHEARER, JOHN SHEARER/INVISION/AP

Jacki Weaver, “Silver Lining Playbook”: The actress wore a green Pamella Roland gown to the Golden Globes and a pewter Tadashi Shoji (next photo) to the SAG Awards.

Sally Field, “Lincoln”: The petite actress has a youthfulness that allows her to take more chances than most actresses her age. Fittingly she wore a navy Alberta Ferretti dress to the Golden Globes and a purple J. Mendel gown (next photo) to the SAG Awards; both of which showed off her fit figure appropriately. Sunday's dress should be more of same but with a bit more pizzazz and sparkle. JOHN SHEARER, JOHN SHEARER/INVISION/AP
